Ballarat bowls game back on for Multiple Sclerosis tournament

February 18th, 2012

BALLARAT and district bowlers and the MS Association will team up once again when the Multiple Sclerosis Mixed Bowls Tournament is revived next month.

Ballarat Bowling Club manager John Crawford said the event, which was once an annual tradition, would be staged for the first time in many years on March 31.

Mr Crawford’s wife Rhonda, who was diagnosed with MS 34 years ago, ran the event and has raised $25,000 in its 13-year history.

Ballarat MS Association president Fred Reus has now reignited the tournament by arranging for prize money on the day.

Entry in the fours event will be limited to 32 teams playing three games of nine ends, starting at 1pm.

“All profits on the day remain in Ballarat,” Mr Crawford said.

“Anything that’s raised stays here to help support people who have got MS.”

Ballarat Bowling Club had offered its greens and facilities to assist in making the day a success, he said.

To enter a team of four contact Fred Reus: 53313690 or
